The Swiss ETF market picked up in the second quarter compared with the previous quarter. Turnover increased from CHF 15.829 billion to CHF 18.427 billion in the second quarter, an increase of 16.41%, with the generally positive sentiment on the stock markets contributing to this. The average ticket size in the first half of the year was 14.73% below the value for the entire previous year, while the median exceeded it by 10.60%. Compared with the first quarter, both the ticket size and the median increased slightly. However, ticket sizes above CHF 100,000 were still slightly below those of the previous year. The range of newly listed ETFs on SIX Swiss Exchange increased by a further 84 units in the second quarter of 2024, and by 28 June the total number of ETFs listed on SIX Swiss Exchange amounted to 1,788 units. The focus of new listings remained on bond ETFs, which accounted for almost half of new issues. The first reductions in key interest rates by central banks and the prospect of further cuts provided new impetus for fixed-interest securities. A number of new listings also focused on sustainability. This was rounded off by a few new thematic ETFs.
